Superior woman's quick action using CPR helps save man's life

From: Duluth News Tribune

It could be called a tale of two heroes. A Superior woman’s quick decision to start CPR in the parking lot of the Superior Walmart kept a Vietnam veteran’s heart pumping for a few crucial minutes.

“She was a real hero,” Gerhardt Glass of Herbster said from his hospital bed in the Essentia Health Cardiac Intensive Care Unit on Friday. “I don’t know what I could say to give her as much credit as she has coming. She saved my life.”

Through a series of coincidences, Lorie Clark was at the right place at the right time to keep Glass’ blood flowing. That forged the first link in a chain of survival.
